APL Pager issues:
- initialPage is not working on a real device [echo show 1st generation, software version: 622331120] (authoring tool works fine)
- SetPage command is not working during:
- the APL Pager is on another (none visible) page within a APL Pager
- the APL Pager is a child of a APL ScrollView/Sequence and not within the viewport
For the initialPage issue, I just tried the APL document below both on the authoring tool and an Echo Show (first gen) device and it showed the second page as expected. If you're still seeing the issue, please share the APL document and device serial number for your device.
Thanks

For the APL pager that is not visible on the viewport scenario, I tried the skill response below on an Echo Show (first gen). The document has a Pager under a giant Text block inside a ScrollView. I also sent a SetPage command and it correctly set the Pager to the last (index=2) item. Again, let me know i this doesn't work for you.
Thank you so much for helping us improve APL!

Hi @Arun,
I'm back from vacation. I will soon check whether the problems still exist or not and will report.
Regards,
Alex
